Patients with Meniere's disease were examined using the mecholyl test by means of conjunctival instillation and the pupil contraction rate was calculated by measuring the pupil area before and after mecholyl application. The rate of appearance of abnormal miosis was significantly higher than that of normal subjects during the interval, quasi-attack, and attack stages of the disease on both the affected and unaffected sides, although the rate of appearance obtained by measuring the pupil diameter was higher on the affected side only than that of normal subjects. When the test was repeated on the same patients, the rate of contraction of the pupil area markedly increased on the affected side in the following order: the interval, quasi-attack and attack stages. This indicates that the deterioration in autonomic function in the affected side is related to the cause of vertiginous attack in Meniere's disease.
